Clearly I just didn't use enough smilies.

My Husk!

Yes, that is why I used a smiley. It was for your benefit. The rest of us can detect each others' dry wit. ;) And I probably need to send out draws again. Should have thought of that before leaving this morning, but I wasn't paying attention. I'll try to remember when I get back home.

Stoneforge Mystic, search library, reveal Flayer Husk and put it into my hand, cast it, done. Spiderman: 18 Poison: 0 Hand: 5 Library: 53 Battlefield: (U,U) Forestx2 Graveyard: Exile: ====================================================================================================...

UUD, Plains, Attack with Skyhunter. Responses?

My previous post was the image, but now I'm seeing only part of a tag. Technical glitch?

In the interest of fairness, some of the things I think the "my" side of the discussion got wrong... Some enthusiasts of the Vengevival deck thought that blue/green Madness would still be good without Survival of the Fittest. While I'm not saying that post-Survival Madness aggro was never a...

There's really so much that could be said about this card that has nothing to do with its ban in Legacy... ...but right now I still wanna talk about Legacy, so too bad. Looking back at the discussion here from that time period, I think that in hindsight, both sides got some parts wrong...

That's why I never mulligan! :oops:

I can't really remember what you guys have drawn at this point, but if Healing Salve specifically is in there somewhere, then I messed up worse than I would have thought possible, as it's not in Eternal Masters at all. :p For all practical purposes, there's not any need for it, but do kind of...

Nope, it's a different game. My Leonin Skyhunter is going to beat you down and you don't get any Panic Spellbomb to save you this time. But I have to wait until I get home to know what my glorious topdeck is before I can actually get to that. So just you wait!

There aren't any mountains in this game! You're playing a green deck.

Are you OK? I noticed that you listed your basic land using an actual, full card name and not just two letters. If you're going to call cards by their actual names, that could get confusing. :p UUD, Plains, Leonin Skyhunter, done. Spiderman: 20 Poison: 0 Hand: 5 Library: 54 Battlefield...

My 2007 quarter landed on tails. I have a very dramatic opening turn of Plains, done. Spiderman: 20 Poison: 0 Hand: ?? Library: ?? Battlefield: Graveyard: Exile: ==================================================================================================== Oversoul: 20 Poison: 0...

Good question. I don't know how familiar the term is to everyone else, and it occurs to me that I don't remember seeing other people actually use it in the past few years, so I should note that the term "Aggro-Combo" is a concept that I used to see different Magic writers throw around, and in no...

I assumed that he would take a year, as per protocol.

People play Magic to have fun. Part of having fun is winning, yes, but how you win matters, even though theoretically it should not. I mean, if we were all computers or something, it wouldn't matter. But to humans, the details behind the outcome color our perception of the outcome. Years ago, I...

Well, that leaves me with War of Attrition. I'll sleeve it up when I get home this evening. Fun bit of trivia: when the DCI wanted to ban Stoneforge Mystic in Standard they had a problem: they had put two copies of the card into this Event Deck, and the premise of Event Decks was that they were...

One of the points brought up in SotF discussions contemporary with the ban was that the rise of "Vengevival" had made Survival decks by far the most prevalent decks in tournaments. While Survival had been part of the Legacy metagame from the beginning, it had finally been pushed to a new level...
